Man arrested with pistols at UCLA

Authorities held a man without bail Monday after campus police at UCLA said they found five loaded semiautomatic pistols in his possession and more than 10,000 rounds of ammunition in his van and storage locker.

Gene Bush, 52, was arrested late Friday by campus police after he allegedly shot at a traffic light. Responding officers found him carrying the pistols — which were equipped with laser sights — and 400 bullets, UCLA campus police said in a statement Monday. He was being held at County Jail and expected to make an initial court appearance today.

Campus officers also found 7,800 rounds of ammunition in his van and 3,000 more in his storage locker, police said. The statement said Bush appeared to have no criminal history and was living out of his van.

After his arrest, he told police to look in his suitcase for "the secret," the release said. A Los Angeles police bomb squad found timers, paint thinner and other suspicious items inside, as well as what police called a "manifesto" titled "The Secret."
